A Better Version

 

.

“No matter who you are, no matter what you did, no matter where you’ve come from, you can always change, become a better version of yourself.”
Madonna

.
I believe we are all work in progress. Are you someone who likes to grow? Do you constantly seek to improve yourself and become better?

.
It is important to be kind to yourself. Stop telling yourself that what ever you are struggling with ‘should’ be easy. If something is difficult for you, except it is tough for you. There are probably good reasons why. Acknowledge these.

.
When you finish something difficult, be proud! Congratulate yourself. Try to stop saying “should” to yourself regarding your thoughts in any context. You feel how you feel. It is not possible to change them directly through sheer will power.

.
You can however change what you do. Stop beating yourself up for who and what you are right now. Focus on moving forward, becoming who you want to be.

.
I realise there is never an end to the journey of self improvement. The more I grow, the more I realise there is so much I do not know, so much that I have to learn. For sure, there is always something about ourselves we can improve on. The human potential is limitless.

.
Accept were you are today, before looking at an area of your life which needs improving. With a plan of action, commit to begin making changes to become a better version of yourself.

.
“Make the most of yourself….for that is all there is of you.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
